Since I got my new computer, I noticed that I can no longer import data using the option to Add XY Data by browsing for the .xlsx file. It gives me an error "Failed to connect to Database" (See attached screen shot). Any idea why this is happening? I assume it's due to 8 OS because I've never had an issue importing XY data previously, and when I try to import the exact same file on my old computer with Windows 7, it works.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Thanks for any advice.</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Tue, 18 Feb 2014 12:47:15 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-enterprise-portal-questions/adding-xy-data-error-with-10-1/m-p/510870#M7087 deleted-user-W17i9rKaOdiH 2014-02-18T12:47:15Z Re: Adding XY Data Error with 10.1 https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-enterprise-portal-questions/adding-xy-data-error-with-10-1/m-p/510871#M7088 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>try saving to an older version of excel (aka .xls) to see if that temporarily resolves the problem</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Tue, 18 Feb 2014 12:55:36 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-enterprise-portal-questions/adding-xy-data-error-with-10-1/m-p/510871#M7088 DanPatterson_Retired 2014-02-18T12:55:36Z Re: Adding XY Data Error with 10.1 https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-enterprise-portal-questions/adding-xy-data-error-with-10-1/m-p/510872#M7089 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>That worked!
